the meeting with the Ambasador

This meeting was really a great opportunity for the students of the English branch so i feel really lucky that i was part of it. The questions that we made there are:
1- What is the key of your success?
" Its easy to be an Ambassador in Albania. the reason is because the relationship between Albanian and U.S has been easy. My college has to be worried about election in Venezuela because a candidate is pro America and another anti in Albania. I`m not worried because whoever win would be pro America. During election night i sleep very quiet. The easiest is the public opinion. Albanians are favorably disposed. In other countries i don`t get necessarily gift."

2- Was it difficult for you to adopt with Albanian culture?
" I have lived in different countries and it wasn`t so easy. Here the children are very opened and even at a young age you can find friends. In any country the hospitality has been so easy in other countries it comes more formally."

3- What are the features of American culture?
" There are a lot of elements i`m proud off:
a- democracy- for Americans democracy is not just a system but a system of belief. Is almost the state of mind
b-egalitarianism- An believe that we should be judged for ourselves quality not our for our father ability. A person with ability can be equal. Is point of America."
c-individualism- We have got some original tendencies. If you ask Amy about Minnesota she would probably say the best words for it. Although they have personal believes they are proud of the country they come from."

4- What do you expect from a good interpreter?
" I have been fortunate here because i have two interpreters Fredy and Bruna. What i appreciate in them is that they have a real gift, a real talent. They`re looking my English words but the meaning. When you give a speech it is not important what i say but what you hear."

5-How do you think Albanian is adopting democracy?
" In Albania i see a lot of progress toward democracy. it is based upon a couple of concepts on the diversity of opinion to get your ideas and get the best for all the place. Albania is moving forward, is progressing. Here i`m surprised that young people don`t ex-tern their opinion to their superiors. of course it can happen here but it takes a lot of movement and activity. It is entirely in your hands, you are the future, insist on it."

6- Which is your advice for the students of the English branch?
" To work absolutely as hard as you can."
